INTRODUCTION.

The  principal  purpose  of  this  list  is  to  help  book  committees  in  small 
'  libraries.  The  books  for  the  very  small  libraries  must  be  purchased 
,  with  the  utmost  care.  With  so  few  books  that  it  is  difficult  to  supply 
■  the  demand,  nearly  all  the  books  must  be  popular  with  the  mass  of 
readers,  and  the  average  cost  must  be  small.  On  the  other  hand,  un- 
-  wholesome  books  must  be  carefully  excluded  and  too  cheap  editions 
must  be  avoided.  In  selecting  the  books  for  this  list  the  officers  of 
the  Commissions  have  been  guided  largely  by  experience.  They  have 
omitted  all  books  of  whose  wholesomeness  they  have  any  doubt,  and 
have  accepted  those  that  the  experience  of  the  larger  proportion  of- 
small  libraries  has  shown  to  be  popular  with  most  readers. 

The  list  includes  about  1,200  titles.  The  books  most  desirable  for 
first  purchase  have  been  designated  by  asterisks.  Less  than  500 
titles  are  so  marked. 

Some  otherwise  excellent  books  have  been  omitted  because  they  will 
not  stand  ordinary  library  wear. 

-  A  few  classes,  such  as  biography,  useful  arts,  and  travel,  have  been 
Tj  maae  very  full  because  of  the  general  interest  in  such  works.  The 
interests  of  each  community  must  be  considered,  and  only  books  that 
will  be  used  should  be  bought.  In  some  cases,  classes  which  have 
very  few  entries  will  need  to  bo  extended.  The  Commission  will  send 
additional  lists  upon  request,  and  will  issue  occasional  bulletins  of 
bibliography  to  supplement  this  list.  These  supplementary  lists  will 
include  some  of  the  more  expensive  works  which  have  been  omitted 
from  this  selection,  but  which  may  be  added  as  the  funds  of  the  library 
ificrease. 

On  page  10  will  be  found  a  list  of  further  aids  in  book  selection. 
Buying  lists  of  new  books  will  be  issued  by  the  Commission  at  frequent 
intervals. 

SELECTING  BOOKS. 

If  a  public  library,  supported  by  tax,  is  to  receive  and  merit  public 
support,  it  must  have  books  that  give  pleasure.  If  it  is  to  hold  the 
esteem  of  the  community,  and  so  win  continued  support,  the  books 
must  be  wholesome  and  their  reading  must  give  sane  views  of  life, 
good  inspirations  and  reliable  information.  Each  new  library  must 
build  up  its  own  patronage  by  giving  untrained  readers  the  best  of  the 
most  popular  books  and  then  leading  them  gradually  from  good  books

SELECTING  BOOKS. 


to  better.  The  reading  habit  must  precede  the  habit  of  studying,  and 
the  librarian  in  a  small  town  should  be  well  satisfied,  if,  in  the  first 
two  years  of  the  work,  she  can  get  the  masses  to  come  to  her  library 
habitually  to  get  books  to  read  for  pleasure,  and  if  she  has  a  few 
students.  A  few  books  for  reference  and  a  few  more  books  for  stu¬ 
dents  should  then  be  added  and  more  care  taken  to  develop  students 
from  readers. 

Children's  books. — The  work  of  a  public  library  is  measured  largely 
by  its  usefulness  to  the  children  of  the  community.  Fortunately  there 
are  so  many  books  for  them  that  are  both  wholesome  and  intensely 
interesting  that  a  small  library  need  have  no  third-rate  volumes  on 
its  shelves.  The  libraries  which  have  a  good  supply  of  the  books  for 
the  young  by  such  writers  as  James  Baldwin,  Howard  Pyle,  Kate  Doug¬ 
las  Wiggin,  Edward  Eggleston,  Sara  Orne  Jewett,  and  the  best  of  the 
books  by  others  like  Louisa  M.  Alcott  and  Charles  Carleton  Coffin,  need 
take  no  books  by  Alger,  Optic,  Henty,  Ellis,  J.  T.  Trowbridge,  Castle- 
mon  nor  any  of  such  series  as  the  “Elsie,”  “Pansy”  and  “Prudy” 
books.  Boys  love  and  need  stories  of  adventure,  but  when  we  have 
good  biographies  of  Washington,  Lincoln,  Paul  Jones,  Livingstone,  and 
stirring  narratives  like  those  of  Treasure  Island  and  Men  of  iron,  it  is 
not  necessary  to  take  any  indifferent  books  in  the  very  small  library, 
and  in  the  larger  ones  even  the  best  of  such  writers  as  Stoddard  and 
Munroe  may  be  used  sparingly.  An  occasional  book  of  a'n  author  who 
depends  largely  upon  very  exciting  incidents  to  maintain  interest  may 
do  no  harm,  may  even  serve  a  useful  purpose,  but  a  liberal  course  of 
such  reading  is  detrimental. 

Editions. — A  very  small  library  should  have  a  somewhat  large  pro¬ 
proportion  of  books  by  the  older  authors,  commonly  called  “standard.” 
As  there  are  many  editions  of  the  best  of  such  works,  and  as  most 
of  the  cheap  editions  are  very  poor,  book  committees  should  be  very 
careful  in  selecting  the  editions  as  well  as  in  selecting  the  titles.  To 
order  simply  Arabian  nights  in  a  cheap  edition  may  bring  a  copy  that 
is  so  poorly  made  as  to  be  almost  valueless,  or  a  full  translation  that 
is  thoroughly  objectionable. 

In  making  this  list  an  effort  has  been  made  to  select  the  must  satis¬ 
factory  of  the  inexpensive  editions  of  the  standard  authors.  In  the 
case  of  libraries  having  more  means  it  will  sometimes  be  found  better 
to  buy  more  expensive  editions.  In  buying  the  copyrighted  books  of 
the  list  there  is  usually  no  choice.  In  buying  books  in  science,  po¬ 
litical  and  social  economy,  and  the  useful  arts,  book  committees  should 
buy  recent  books  and,  the  latest  editions  of  standard  works. 

ORDEKING. 

Special  care  should  be  taken  in  ordering  and  buying  the  first  pur¬ 
chases. 

A  number  of  copies  of  the  list  of  books  selected  should  be  made. 
These  lists  should  give  for  each  book  the  name  of  the  author,  the  title, 
the  publisher,  and  the  price,  in  the  form  in  which  they  are  given  in  this

Suggestive  list,  alphabetically  arranged.  Sufficient  space  should  he  left 
on  both  margins  so  that  the  dealer  will  have  room  to  check  and  enter 
prices. 

In  writing  orders  do  not  crowd  lines  and  leave  space  on  both  mar¬ 
gins.  The  following  is  a  model  order  in  the  form  which  we  suggest: 

Smith  &  Smith, 

161  Front  St., 


Gentlemen : 

Please  send  to  the  Public  Library  at - ,  - ,  the  following  hooks, 

shipping  by - railway: 

Alcott.  Little  women  . Little  $1  50 

Carlyle.  Heroes  and  hero  worship. . . . McClurg  1  00 

Churchill.  Richard  Carvel  . Macmillan  1  50 

Irving.  Life  of  Washington,  5  vols.,  Hudson  ed . Putnam  3  75 

Vaile.  Sue  Orcutt  . Wilde  1  50 

Westcott.  David  Harum  . Appleton  1  50 


Yours  very  truly, 

(Miss)  Grace  R.  Wheat,  Librarian. 

Copies  of  this  list  should  he  sent  to  a  number  of  reputable  dealers  and 
they  should  he  asked  to  hid  with  the  assurance  that  the  one  giving  the 
lowest  prices  on  the  editions  specified  shall  have  the  order. 

A  copy  of  the  order  should  he  kept  in  the  library  on  slips,  and  an 
exact  copy  of  the  order  as  it  is  sent  to  the  dealer.  After  the  book  com¬ 
mittee  has  become  familiar  with  discounts  and  library  editions,  it  will 
not  be  necessary  to  secure  bids  for  every  list  but  to  trust  to  honorable 
and  fair  treatment  from  a  regular  dealer. 

In  towns  where  there  are  intelligent  dealers  it  is  often  advisable 
to  buy  through  them  and  to  allow  them  small  commissions  for  their 
trouble.  The  librarian  and  the  members  of  the  book  committee  should 
know  the  lowest  prices  at  which  the  books  can  be  purchased. 

The  books  marked  net  in  this  list  are  sold  to  libraries  at  a  discount 
of  10  per  cent.  On  other  books  the  discounts  will  vary  from  the  usual 
33  1-3  per  cent,  to  60  per  cent,  on  the  volumes  in  Burt’s  Home  Wbrarg 
and  certain  similar  series. 

RECEIVING  THE  BOOKS. 

When  the  dealer  receives  the  order  he  may  find  that  he  has  many 
of  the  books  in  stock.  He  will  send  these  at  once  and  order  the  re¬ 
mainder  from  the  publishers.  In  this  case  the  second  box  or  package 
will  probably  arrive  at  the  library  from  fifteen  to  twenty  days  later 
than  the  first.  Sometimes  books  are  temporarily  “out  of  print”  and 
the  dealer  will  inform  the  librarian  and  ask  for  instructions.  It  is 
usually  better  to  strike  such  books  from  the  order  and  put  the  titles  in 
a  subsequent  order,  as  those  which  are  sent  singly,  as  they  come  to 
the  dealer,  are  received  by  express,  or  by  mail  at  postage  rates.  There  is 
wise  economy  in  having  the  dealer  prepay  express  charges  on  small 
consignments,  including  the  amount  in  the  bill. 


6 


BOOK-BUYIJs^G. 


When  an  invoice  of  books  is  received,  the  books  should  be  checked 
by  the  bill  and  copy  of  the  order  to  see  whether  the  editions  and  the 
prices  correspond  with  the  bid. 

Volumes  which  are  imperfect  through  the  carelessness  of  the  binder, 
as  when  pages  are  repeated  or  omitted,  leaves  badly  torn,  or  covers 
put  on  upside  down,  should  be  sent  to  the  publishers  by  express, 
charges  unpaid^  The  publishers  will  then  send  new  and  perfect  copies 
at  their  own  expense.  Any  reputable  publisher  will  cheerfully  make 
such  an  exchange  of  books,  even  when  an  imperfect  copy  has  been 
stamped  and  loaned  a  number  of  times. 

Books  received  in  bad  condition,  shelf-worn,  soiled,  or  damaged, 
should  be  returned  to  the  dealer  from  whom  they  were  purchased. 

BUYING  FKOM  AGENTS. 

New  libraries  are  constantly  importuned  by  book  agents  and  pub¬ 
lishers  to  buy  expensive  sets  of  books.  The  experience  of  most  small 
libraries  proves  that  very  few  sets  of  large  volumes  are  much  used. 
Those  that  are  necessary  can  ordinarily  be  purchased  from  the  dealers 
at  a  considerable  discount  from  the  price  made  by  the  book  agents. 
Many  libraries  have  a  rule  prohibiting  purchases,  from  book  agents. 
No  books  should  be  bought  from  them  until  correspondence  with  rep¬ 
utable  dealers  and  the  Commission  has  proved  that  the  books  are 
worthy  and  that  lower  prices  can  not  be  obtained.  Agents  may  deserve 
pecuniary  assistance,  but  public  officials  should  give  charity  from  their 
private  purses  and  not  from  the  public  treasury. 


PURCHASE  OF  SETS. 

As  to  the  works  of  standard  authors,  it  is  not  necessary  to  buy  com¬ 
plete  sets.  An  incomplete  set  may  be  completed  as  opportunity  arises 
or  occasion  requires.  A  very  small  library  will  need  only  a  few  of 
the  best  works  of  each  author.  When  there  is  a  choice  of  bindings 
plain  and  substantial  ones  should  be  selected.  Good  cloth  bindings 
will  last  for  years,  and  when  worn  the  books  may  be  rebound  in  half¬ 
leather  for  less  than  the  difference  in  price  at  the  bookstores  between 
the  cloth  bound  nopy  and  the  leather  bound  copy. 

When  books  fall  into  pieces  sooner  than  they  should,  on  account  of 
poor  sewing,  too  heavy  paper  or  any  defect  of  paper  or  binding,  send 
a  temperate,  lucid  statement  oT  the  fact  to  the  publishers  and  to  the 
Commission. 


now  TO  CARE  FOR  THE  BOOKS. 

When  new  books  are  received  they  should  be  compared  with  the  slip 
or  sheet  copy  of  the  order  anid  checked  with  the  bill,  as  noted  above, 
and  in  large  orders  the  price  may  be  penciled  in  the  book  itself  on 
the  inner  margin  of  the  first  right  hand  page  following  the  title  page. 
They  should  be  held  flat  and  pressed  open  firmly  and  carefully  in  sev¬ 
eral  places;  examined  for  missing  or  injured  pages;  cut  throughout  to

avoid  tearing  by  an  impatient  reader;  marked  with  the  library  stamp 
on  the  title  page  and  on  one  other  page  (the  number  of  which  shall  be 
the  same  in  all  books) ;  accessioned;  classified;  labelled  and  marked  on 
the  back  (use  Dennison’s  gummed  labels,  plain  white,  and  Higgins’ 
American  India  ink)  ;  pocketed  and  prepared  for  the  charging  system 
previously  selected;  shelf-listed  or  catalogued,  or  both,  on  cards.  (For 
full  directions  see  the  Commission  Hand-hook.) 

New  books  should  always  be  exhibited  in  the  library,  so  that  readers 
may  see  them  all.  They  should  also  be  noted  in  the  daily  or  weekly 
newspapers. 


BOUND  PERIODICALS. 

VALUE  OF  PERIODICALS. 

For  little  more  than  the  expense  of  binding,  libraries  may  acquire 
invaluable  material  for  reference  work.  If  a  library  cannot  afford  to 
bind,  the  magazines  may  still  be  made  very  convenient  for  use  by  tying 
them  neatly  into  volumes,  arranged  by  volume  and  number,  not  by  year 
and  month.  The  8t.  Nicholas,  Harper's  round  table,  and  Youth's  com¬ 
panion  will  be  found  invaluable  in  work  for  the  schools,  the  Forum  and 
North  American  review  for  high  school  debating  societies,  the  Century 
and  Harper's  monthly  for  travel,  history,  art,  and  literature  clubs. 

CLEARING  HOUSE  FOR  PERIODICALS. 

In  the  hope  of  helping  libraries  to  build  up  reference  collections  of 
magazines,  the  Commissions  of  Iowa,  Minnesota  and  Wisconsin  have  es¬ 
tablished  clearing  houses  ror  periodicals.  It  is  the  purpose  of  these 
clearing  houses  to  supply  volumes  or  parts  of  volumes  needed  by  li¬ 
braries  to  complete  sets.  In  return  the  libraries  are  expected  to  send 
all  duplicates  to  the  Commission,  that  other  libraries  may  be  likewise 
benefited. 

HOW  TO  BENEFIT  BY  IT. 

In  making  a  list,  the  librarian  should  designate  with  accuracy  the 
magazines  wanted.  It  is  well  to  give  not  only  volume  and  number, 
but  also  date  of  publication.  In  case  of  complete  volumes,  the  dates 
covered  should  be  indicated,  of  single  numbers,  the  several  dates;  for 
example.  Century,,  v.  40,  May-Oct,  1890.  Century,  v.  41,  no.  3,  Jan., 
1891.  Exchanges  will  be  made  by  freight  unless  otherwise  ordered,  the 
Commission  paying  for  transportation  of  all  material  received,  and 
sending  to  libraries  freight  unpaid. 

COLLECTING  PERIODICALS. 

A  systematic  collecting  of  periodicals  should  be  made  in  every  town. 
Librarians  will  find  that  a  great  amount  of  material  will  be  discovered 
by  advertising  the  needs  of  their  libraries  through  the  newspapers,  the 
women’s  clubs,  and  the  young  people  of  the  high  school.  The  house-

cleaning  season  is  an  especially  good  time  to  make  an  appeal.  Adver¬ 
tise  in  the  paper  that  on  a  certain  day  collectors  will  call  at  every  door 
for  contributions  of  periodicals.  It  will  be  easy  to  find  a  boy  with  a 
cart  glad  to  give  his  services  to  the  library  for  the  day. 

VALUE  OF  INDEXES. 

As  working  aids  the  periodicals  would  be  practically  worthless  but 
for  the  indexes.  They  make  accessible  material  not  to  be  found  in 
other  sources,  also  much  that  is  available  elsewhere,  presented  in  a 
condensed,  brief  form,  convenient  for  ordinary  uses. 

The  indexes  save  duplication  of  many  books,  indispensable  to  the  li¬ 
brary,  first  published  in  magazines — such  as  Nicolay  and  Hay’s  Life  of 
Lincoln,  Wheeler’s  Alexmider  the  Great — and  a  long  list  that  might 
be  mentioned.

BOOKS  ABOUT  CHILDHOOD. 


A  number  of  books  about  child  life  are  often  mistakenly  classified  with 
books  for  children.  Nothing  could  be  more  unsuitable  than  to  give  children 
book.s  reminiscent  of  child  life,  which  require  for  appreciation  the  per¬ 
spective  vained  by  age  and  experience.  Parents,  teachers,  librarians,  and, 
in  fact  all  “grown-ups”  who  have  to  do  with  children  are  really  helped  by 
reading  such  books  occasionally.  It  seems  wise  for  all  librarians  to  do  what 
a  few  have  done:  to  classify  these  books  separately  and  to  bring  them 
to  the  attention  of  adult  readers  who  will  really  enjoy  them.  The  books 
may  be  kept  together  by  a  special  prefix  to  the  book  number;  or  by  plac¬ 
ing  them  with  books  on  child-study,  though  this  would  seem  to  take 
away  some  of  their  charm.  They  make  a  special  class  of  fiction  and  deserve 
attention  as  such.  A  few  books  suggested  for  this  purpose  are : 

Amicis,  Edmondo  de.  Cuore  . Holt 

Brooks,  Noah.  Lem:  a  New  England  village  boy.

BOOKS  FOR  CHILDREN. 

These  books  should  be  separated  from  the  others  and  placed  <in  low 
shelves  in  a  bright  attractive  corner  of  the  library .  The  J-  marked  b  fore 
the  class  number  will  distinsruish  the  books  to  be  kept  in  tliis  collection. 
It  is  well  to  have  some  special  mark  on  the  bonks  for  very  little  people  ;  such 
as  a  small  red  or  green  star  placed  above  the  label  on  the  back  of  the  book 
and  inside  the  front  cover  or  a  double  +  sign  before  the  call  number. 

Classification  in  the  children’s  department  should  fo'low  t  he  natural  de¬ 
velopment  of  the  child’s  interest  and  the  plans  for  school  work.  Fairy 
tales,  Indian  and  animal  stories  should  be  classed  separately.  The  card 
catalogue  should  index  carefully  all  references  which  will  be  usefid  in 
'  school  work,  and  should  contain  headings  for  historical  stories,  school 
stories,  Indian  stories,  etc. 

Notes  on  children’s  books  are  given  in  the  T.ixt  of  hooka  for  loivnahip 
.  Iib''ar1es‘,  issued  by  the  State  Superintendent.  This  list  may  be  used  in 
selecting  books  for  purchase  when  the  books  here  noted  are  all  in  the 
library  It  is  decidedly  better,  however,  to  buy  duplicates  of  the  best 
books  for  children,  than  to  increase  the  number  of  titles.
